Kjaer Weis was founded by Kristen Kjaer Weis, who's a Newyork based makeup artist, she worked around the world for some of the most renowned fashion magazines like Vogue, Elle, and Marie Claire. As an in-demand makeup artist, Kirsten found that people were sacrificing the health of their skin by using irritating, synthetic makeup. The natural products, however, were not up to par in performance, and the luxury of the beauty experience was lost. Kirsten used her experience growing up in a natural environment and her knowledge of beauty to pursue uncharted territory in the industry, creating Kjaer Weis - a pioneer in organic, luxury beauty.
Kjaer Weis is leading the movement with high-performing, luxury makeup that is, as everything should be, organic and sustainable. Every batch of makeup has been inspected by hand and remains free of parabens, silicones, petrochemical emulsifiers and synthetic fragrances. Made in Italy, almost all of their products have been Certified Natural or Certified Organic by the stringent standards of the country’s certification body, the Controllo e Certificazione Prodotti Biologici.
I love discovering new brands so when I was asked to test out a few Kjaer Weis Products I was more than happy to do so. Today I'm going to review the KW Sun Touched cream blush and The Lip Balm. This brand screams luxury from the elegant packaging to the products itself. Kjaer Weis line contains foundations, eyeshadows, cream blushes, cream bronzers, highlighters, lipsticks, lip balm and lip tints. Everything in the line comes in a refillable pan which comes in paper cartons.

Kjaer Weis Cream Blush in Sun Touched
KW Sun Touched cream blush is a beautiful warm peachy coral shade and it's great for medium-dark skin with neutral or golden undertones. The blush comes in a heavy metal architectural design compact and the cover slides open to reveal the pan. The consistency is very creamy, lightweight and it's highly pigmented so you only need a few dots on the apple of your cheeks for a youthful, glowy sun-kissed look. I like to use my fingers to apply the blush the warmth of my fingers helps melt the product which helps blend out the blush seamlessly. The texture has some tackiness to it without it being too sticky. My cheeks are very dry and I find this cream blush extremely hydrating and it doesn't cling to any dry patches. I was pleasantly surprised at how well this blush performed. I usually have trouble with cream blushes fading midday, however, this is very long lasting it wore for 8-9 hours before it started fading. Here are some of the key ingredients:
Jojoba Seed Oil- Adds moisture to the skin.
Rosa Rubiginosa Seed Oil- Excellent tissue regeneration properties; fights signs of aging.
Gardenia Florida Fruit Extract- Antioxidant; works as a natural preservative.
